As I stated in my email I have the libltinfo.so: $ ls -l /usr/lib/libtinfo* /lib/libtinfo* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 May 30 09:59 /lib/libtinfo.so.5 -> libtinfo.so.5.7 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 130136 Feb 3 2010 /lib/libtinfo.so.5.7 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 May 30 10:29 /usr/lib/libtinfo.so -> ../../lib/libtinfo.so.5 My system is 32 bit.
